Good stuff Guy's.....From what I can gather so far the biggest complaint with the Ruger is a very heavy trigger pull, I need to handle one and find out for Myself but Ruger Redhawks are hard to locate in My neck of the woods, seems every gunshop has a 629 though......This gun wont see many heavy loads as I will be shooting mostly 44 Special ammo till hunting season rolls around then I will likely be shooting the Barnes 225 grain 44 Mag factory ammo........Hb
